LG Chem Introduces 2% of U.K. Tauro Kit, a surgical antibacterial drug that improves ease of use



LG Chem will introduce a new antimicrobial product for preventing infection that can be used quickly and safely during surgery.

LG Chem announced on the 4th that it will introduce 2% shares of the UK Tauro Kit (hereinafter referred to as Tauro Kit, photo)' developed by UK Chemical Farm Co., Ltd. and recently approved for product, and sell them exclusively in Korea.

UK ChemPharm Co., Ltd. is a pharmaceutical company specializing in kit formulations specializing in infection prevention and continues to introduce various kit formulations such as Korea's first all-in-one (a sterile combination of antibiotics and fluids) kit antibiotics and half-kit formulation fluids with increased convenience in preparation.




LG Chem, which is building a tight customer network in the musculoskeletal field based on hyaluronic acid (HA) treatment businesses such as Sinovian and Hiruan Plus, said it will launch TauroKit to meet the demand for customer-friendly surgical antimicrobials used in musculoskeletal surgery.

Taurolidine, the main component of taurokit, is a substance derived from taurine, a synthetic amino acid in the body, and irreversibly binds to the cell wall of living things to produce antibacterial activity derivatives. In the case of peritonitis, bone and soft tissue damage, and pleural cavity abscess surgery, the tauro kit can be used as a cleaning solution at the surgical site to prevent infection. It is characterized by high supply stability as a domestic product for the entire process from raw materials to finished products.

In addition, the product was developed by considering the urgent and tense environment of the operating room as a top priority, and the container was differentiated so that medical staff could dilute and prepare injections easily, quickly and safely by reflecting customer discomfort. The existing three-stage product stopper opening method was reduced to two stages to provide a rapid injection solution preparation environment, and an easy-to-open screw-type stopper and a hard mounting ring were applied to further enhance ease of use and surgical concentration. In addition, PP (polypropylene), which is lightweight and recyclable, was adopted as a container material to make it easier to move, store, and dispose of than conventional glass bottles, and PP was applied instead of sharp aluminum to reduce scratches such as skin scratches that could occur when the stopper was opened.
